Observation of Fermi arcs and Weyl nodes in a noncentrosymmetric magnetic Weyl semimetal

چکیده

Weyl semimetal (WSM), a novel state of quantum matter, hosts fermions as emergent quasiparticles resulting from the breaking either inversion or time-reversal symmetry. Magnetic WSMs that arise broken symmetry provide an exceptional platform to understand interplay between magnetic order and physics, but only few have been realized. Here, we identify CeAlSi new noncentrosymmetric WSM via angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) first-principles, density-functional theory based calculations. Our surface-sensitive vacuum ultraviolet ARPES data confirm presence surface Fermi arcs conclusive evidence for existence semimetallic in CeAlSi. We also observe bulk cones at arc terminations using bulk-sensitive soft-x-ray measurements. These results implicate unique investigating exotic phenomena interaction topology magnetism.

Observation of Weyl nodes and Fermi arcs in tantalum phosphide

A Weyl semimetal possesses spin-polarized band-crossings, called Weyl nodes, connected by topological surface arcs. The low-energy excitations near the crossing points behave the same as massless Weyl fermions, leading to exotic properties like chiral anomaly. To have the transport properties dominated by Weyl fermions, Weyl nodes need to locate nearly at the chemical potential and enclosed by ...

A Weyl Fermion semimetal with surface Fermi arcs in the transition metal monopnictide TaAs class

Weyl fermions are massless chiral fermions that play an important role in quantum field theory but have never been observed as fundamental particles. A Weyl semimetal is an unusual crystal that hosts Weyl fermions as quasiparticle excitations and features Fermi arcs on its surface. Such a semimetal not only provides a condensed matter realization of the anomalies in quantum field theories but a...
